Cumberland Falls State Resort Park - Kentucky Hotel

What guests think

Cumberland Falls State Resort Park delivers scenic, quiet access to the falls and trails, but reviews note dated, sometimes small rooms with thin walls, mixed service, limited or closed dining, and accessibility challenges like no elevator and many stairs.

Cleanliness feedback is mixed, with many clean rooms but recurring complaints about moldy smells, bugs, and maintenance issues. The remote setting means beautiful views but limited cell service, variable Wi-Fi, and a drive to outside restaurants. Guests praise the peaceful atmosphere and river views from the lodge and patios. Expect simple, rustic lodging prioritizing nature over amenities.

This lodge was in a beautiful place. The rooms were clean and reasonably up-to-date. I think a microwave and minifridge would be a welcome addition. The pool closed too early- 5:30 pm

The lodge is older but overall clean. There is lodge WiFi but could not get a cel phone signal, nor could anyone else we talked to. It is located in Cumberland Falls Park and is convenient to the falls. Very peaceful and quiet. We did have to go into Corbin to eat though as the restaurant in the lodge is closed every Monday and Tuesday, which we thought a bit strange for a hotel. Definitely would stay there again if I were going to the falls.

It's a very old room, and we brought our two dogs with us. This is an individual woodland, but they divided it into two, and we can hear another room talking clearly, so my dog barks a lot, and there is a millipede in the room. We didn't want to bother other travelers because our dogs bark, and we probably couldn't sleep well. So, around 10 pm, we checked out and decided to leave. I like the view of the falls. I hope they upgrade those accommodations.

Honestly the review needs to be 2-part: one part for the actual FALLS and surrounding park areas (gorgeous, well worth the trip) and the other for the accommodations/meals. We stayed in the lodge and it was a disappointent, even allowing for the fact that it is an older facility and one would expect it to be somewhat dated. We were on the 3rd floor---no elevator and difficult, narrow stairs. The room was small but adequate---very nice beds and linens. Bathroom is OK---NO shelves for your toiletries and an extremely low toilet, but excellent shower and towels. The dining room is a lovely space but the meals were disappointing, especially the "continental breakfast." The best part of the lodge is the lobby-level terrace with a wonderful view of the river...

The location is great & the view of the river was good. Plenty of trails to enjoy nature & scenery. The negatives of the trip: food was mediocre & our first room…there was a millipede trying to get out of the light in the ceiling. We told the front desk about this & moved us to another room. The new room was pretty good except when we woke up the next morning there was a millipede in our bathroom. While we want to come back again we will not stay again in the lodge. I understand we are in nature, but the bugs should not be in the building.

The public spaces are comfortable with plenty of seating and games to pass the time. Outside patio is beautiful with a view over the tree tops into the gorge and the river. The rooms are ok. AC units are noisy, we had to request a room change. Shampoo, conditioner, body wash are all liquid and in dispensers in the shower. No soap or hand cream otherwise. Plenty of hot water. The room and bathroom were perfectly clean. They windows opened which isn't something you find everywhere. The rugs and furnishings are dated. It's an old building that could use a little TLC. Example the fire suppression water lines are run external and 'hidden' behind an casing. The meals provided are ok at best. The continental breakfast is meager-cold sugary cereal, unlabeled yogurt, bagels and bread for a toasting, some fruit, coffee in Styrofoam cups. If you want hot anything you have to pay extra. Wifi wasn't working. Staff had trouble entering an order for hot breakfast to the kitchen and to check people out.

The best thing about this property was the view. Guests should be notified before hand that there is no elevator to the second floor. There is only an elevator from the main entrance down to the dining room. Our room was also the farthest from the stairwell which is not great for senior citizens. Our bed was not comfortable. Because it was very cold, the window heater kept loudly turning on so that it was difficult to sleep. There was no hand soap in the bathroom and no spare blanket in the room. The only place to eat with sit down dining was in the main lodge. The menu was somewhat limited and no options for diabetics or people with nut allergies. We checked out a day early because the lodging did not live up to our expectations.

The park is beautiful, Mary at the front desk is rude. I called twice, no answer so we went ahead and drove in 2 hours early. I asked if we could have an early check in and she just said "check in is at 4" I said I'm aware, I was just wondering if we could maybe check in early... she hit me with "check in is at 4." Okay then... my husband asked about the trails and she said "you've seen one.. you've seen them all". We came back 2 hours later to get h to e keys and those ladies were so nice and friendly. 2 lamps in the cabin didn't work- walls were paper thin. I could hear the neighbors peeing and talking all night. Bed was uncomfortable but Shower was nice and hot.

Beautiful old lodge. Needs updating. Room with 2 double beds, only one chair in the room. Restaurants closed Monday and Tuesday (days of our stay). 18 miles into town to get to eat, so I brought our food. Ignored by receptionist upon arrival for about 5 minutes (she was on the phone). No hello or good morning from staff at breakfast (cheap food, but available). Found a child's sock, Legos and a dime on the floor of the room (not vacuumed after last guest?). Nature surrounding the area is beautiful, but didn't make up for the poor quality of the lodge. Needs funding from the state and nicer staff.

The dinner food was not good, so we ended up having to drive into downtown Corbin for dinner after all. Breakfast was mediocre at best, and the coffee was terrible. So if you are staying here for the convenience of the restaurant, I really can't recommend it. If you are staying here for a room, then it's fine.

For the price, we expected a little more. The food was not good, for any of the meals for the price. Regular hotels offer a better continental breakfast. The meat with lunch/dinner was over cooked and looked like it came from a frozen bag. The vegetables didn't even taste good, very bland. It was like they are just cutting costs with no thought to the taste. With the beautiful view in the dining room, you would think they would at least clean the windows. That doesn't cost much. It just seems like they don't care if the guests are happy or not. I love the park and will probably go back but will probably get a cabin and bring our own food next time.

Suggest utilizing curved shower rods to allow more room in shower. Curved rods will extend the space between side wall and curtain. Disappointed in the continental breakfast. You can expect limited options however more than one item was consistently out. May have been a one-off, and not due to chronic staffing issues.
